I see fifteen pages in this thread about the books members of this forum have read. Yet there is not even one mention of the non-fiction book I wrote about my experiences with the magic that exists all around us. I put my book online for free to help others realize magic is real and something...

I fully agree. No point in diluting the real messages with pointless arguing. But I'm not clear on what exactly "political" is defined as on this forum. So I sometimes watch to see if something I said gets deleted as "political", not sure where the line is drawn.

I have long felt sorry for Cain. He tried so hard to get it right! God was supposedly disappointed that he didn't deliver a blood sacrifice by killing a living being. So to please God, he thought nothing could be a bigger sacrifice than to shed the blood of his own dear brother, and then he did...

Thanks. This really is interesting and does have its place. It would be fun to use, but I'm pretty sure it's not really enough for hot summer days in the van (and also would keep your hand occupied with holding it and moving it around your skin). In comment #12 (previous page) I showed and...

I did an images.google.com search on your picture and learned it's this 1970 CT90 Honda. I wasn't able to find anything about the "tank tread" rear end they put on it. But since it's a 1970 bike, I suspect that tred is both out of stock and out of production. I don't know how to find more...

I was looking for those plastic tracks used to get unstuck from the mud, when I ran across this astonishing thing. Of course, it's WAY out of my price range (and where could I store it?) But just for fun to see -- or for someone filthy rich -- I thought I should show you guys: THROUGH THE...

I did explain this PA speaker within another post some time ago and don't want to become guilty of spam. But you now have my details and are free to start a new post about it. I agree it's great. Criminals aren't going to expect that kind of response in their ears. They'll wonder what else you...

Thank goodness you have people who care about you enough to get you set up again! I'm a "lone wolf" without a pack, who'd just be out of luck. I see eBay has a section named Singer 301 Collectible Sewing Machines with quite a few; some very inexpensive. But maybe you meant yours has a special...

When I said "Wheel Lock", I meant this kind which is a replacement nut -- one for each wheel -- which has a special "key" to be able to turn it for taking the wheel off. That's a really good point. What they do see on the outside are the solar panels on top; plus, I leave the rear fan running...

Yep. That could clearly make a difference! (y)

I see the 7-blade model is still available here on Amazon.

First of all, I'm really sorry you had to experience such a thing. I don't have words for it. Concerned the same might happen to me, I have a nut on each wheel that takes a special key to unscrew, same with the license plates, a manual switch on the engine battery (as well as a radio remote...

That's an excellent point that I had not thought of. Thanks for the tip. I'd still be able to go out another door, but then I'd have to find a way to get their lock off my driver's door. Likely not easy to do. You're right on. Another thing I had not thought much about. So now I have a...

Thanks, Monica. I like the looks of it a lot better, but I have no sliding doors nor a rear door that works. I looked over the listing for it on Amazon, which shows it as still in stock there.

Yeah. I thought about doing that. But I'm concerned that could make people think there must be high-value items in there to warrant so much protection.

You are totally correct, Tony. I'm only seeking the best deterrent. If someone REALLY wants into my van, proper use of a locksmith's comb pick on the driver's door will do the trick. And if it's only a rock-throwing window buster, they can clear away the particles of glass and crawl in...

You guys are taking care of me as though I'm your child. Ha ha! 🙃 I still plan to secure each of my other three doors with one of these on each, hidden from view down at the floor: These won't need a lock or a key since they will be on the inside. And just a flick of my finger will release...

You're right about them not being "inexpensive". All three cost more than $200. *Yikes!* But looking them up on Amazon led me to a far better design choice than what I'd listed in my first comment above. It led me to locks that are actually intended for use on a van, as shown below. This one...

It feels good to know you've never had a problem. I've had my van in the city over two years, in a bad neighborhood, and also have not had any breaking attempts, I'm happy to say. I think my van is the perfect vintage and condition: If newer, it might make someone think I'm rich and would have...

Thank you! These are so much better than what I came up with. And I really like Viro's idea of being able to pull a cord from inside to unlock the door.
